Is 11' distance from projector screen too close?


I have a room that is 11' 6" wall to wall and I wondered if anyone knew whether that was too short of a viewing distance to use a projector?

I was hoping I could use a smaller screen, say 90" and it wouldn't be too large or overpowering for the short viewing distance.

If anyone has knowledge about viewing distances using a projector or personal experience concerning this dilemma, please respond.

Thank You

It is a bit close and you would be wise to check if the projector can do it before committing.
I did quite a bit of research and the Panasonic AE4000 was the best projector about 6 months ago ( in the 2000 to 5000 range) - not sure if it will throw as little as 11 ft but it kicks the butt of that Sony you are looking at - right out of the ball park
